Just took the NCLEX....

Published

I took the NCLEX this morning and going into it I felt very confident. Afterwards though I couldn't have felt more incompetent even if I tried :cry:. I didn't have any math problems, maybe 2 SATA questions, a lot of prioritization and knowledge questions, and a couple of delegation questions. The computer shut off at 83 questions....from what I've been reading I know the number of questions really don't determine whether you pass or fail but given the type of questions....can anyone else who has had a similar experience tell me if they passed or failed? I would appreciate ANY input right now because the waiting is killing me. And right now I'm just trying to mentally prepare myself for what lies ahead (specifically talking about having to take the test again). I used Kaplan, Saxton, and Princeton Review to study. On Kaplan I was up to 60% - 85% (I know I could've done better). Now I'm kicking myself....HELP!!

Believe me comparing yourself to others doesn't matter it all goes on how you did in the exam. I know it is hard but try to relax and distract yourself whilst waiting for the results. Good luck

Good luck! I got my fingers crossed for you!

Today was the first day so don't under estimate yourself. You may be surprised that you have passed. Enjoy the weekend and forget about the stress of waiting for results. Good luck.
